Heighest weight I’ve been since November. This is not going backwards. 2 pounds becomes 5 becomes 10 etc like it has so many times before. So I am stopping the insanity now and not ignoring the creep. Cleaned out the cabinets and thank God it’s garbage day. What was your “insanity stopping” moment.

Biometric screening
Had my biometric screening for work insurance yesterday and the tech measured me at 5’4.5”. My entire life I have mean 2 inches taller or so I thought.

Don't agree with my trainer
Today after my run and workout, my trainer says to me, "ok, you're done". I got really confused and said "done with what"? and she replied "no more losing weight...you're done. Time to maintain".

Old habits and ah ha moments
So I got some news at work today that got me really mad and even though I've been doing pretty well on my weight loss goals, my first thought was I NEED SOMETHING SWEET!! and literally had to physically stop moving...take a breath....and say no you don't need something sweet you need to address the feelings you're feeling.…

Accepting Changing Body
I know there are worst things to deal with but is anyone else having issues accepting the changes to their body or the comments for people about their weight loss and if so, how do you manage it. I often feel embarrassed by the attention and some people actually get hostile. thanks!
